A Doctoral study program offered by the Department of Sociology trains graduate candidates to become capable of conducting individual research and scientific work in areas of social studies. The main focus of the study program is to enable a graduate student with the understanding of the latest social theories as well as the most recent scientific methodology concerning Epistemology and data collecting and analysis as well. The Doctoral study program also facilitates further interdisciplinary orientation of a candidate.
The concept of the Doctoral study program in Sociology has been created and designed with the intention to, once the educational process has ended, advance the development student’s abilities to individually, systematically and critically understand and explore various theoretical, historical and empirical issues concerning social studies. In order to achieve this goal, the student will be trained to diagnose and differentiate hypothetical from practical and existent social matters, to position theoretical or empirical study program to research those same matters, to become skilled at adequate research methods and techniques as well as at data basis research methods, to discover to creatively interpret the results of the study, and to come across the ways of applying them to concrete matters.
During the Doctoral study program, the graduate students will gain fundamental education in the area of Sociology as well as the essential understanding of major social and sociological issues. The students will also be introduced to sociological research methods and techniques, as well as to modern data research techniques. The special attention will be given on preparing students to, after the graduation, continue following modern sociological trends so they can access and maintain connections with international scientific society. Due to that, students will be capable of professional assisting in international research projects, and to present their works and achievements in books and magazines, and at conventions and public presentations. This will be one of the ways of enabling a graduate student to individually provide for the growth of Sociology as a science.
The special concept within Sociology as a science is a concept of Sociology being self reflexive science that reflects society. Therefore, with forming the conscious about the sociological research having to completely respect the principles of ethics, the Doctoral study program in Sociology develops the awareness in a graduate student of becoming responsible for the growth of the society and humanity.
